Well, didn't Reshiram and Zekrom travel the world with their respective partners after they split up or something? Surely they would've been spotted in other places, then. I didn't play much of the fifth gen games, but didn't Reshiram and Zekrom stand for ideals and morals or something? Surely, they would've shown up in one of the wars that would've been waged around Kalos (assuming its history is kinda like France's).

They represented Truths and Ideals respectively.

Also, the Mega Lucario man from Unova may have simply erected the statues there from his memory, and eventually ended up in Parfum Palace.

I think the reason why Unova had some sort of prominence was because the world's first Mega Evolution happened on an Unovian person's Lucario that happened to travel to Kalos.
Hence the Mega-Lucario statue in the Tower of Mastery.

Was he from Unova? I like that idea, but was the man's homeland confirmed somewhere?

It was confirmed around the Mega Evolution Arc (meaning from Geosense to Tower of Mastery) in XY by I think one of the NPCs in the Tower of Mastery.

I went to check that, but nobody said anything about where he came from. There wasn't even a vague implication of his homeland being Unova. They just said that he came to Kalos a long, long time ago. *shrug*

I was thinking what if the sequel game or 3rd installment includes some off-the-map mini region basically like the battle zone in sinnoh that u get access to via the railroad in couriway town? my theory also stems from the fact that some npc in game mentions we will be seeing his home region very soon and that it isn't kanto johto hoenn sinnoh or unova. what an odd thing to say.

With the Chamber of Emptiness I think it'll be like the Scorched Slab in RSE it was there but only to get Sunny Day.

My theory is that the Lumiose Ghost Girl I think that she went to get help for the boy at that train station and the girl in Hotel Richesseme (sorry about the spelling) the usual place is the second floor of the building and the girl in Hotel Richesseme thought that that was the usual place.

Going to add some of my own speculation. Sorry if any is inaccurate, I try my best, but sometimes I make mistakes!

To start off, throughout Kalos, they talk about that war with AZ. How did AZ even grow to be that tall and keep is identity a secret for so long? AZ was one of the most mysterious characters, I believe his past should of been explained a bit earlier in the game. He is a king that built a machine to revive a Pokemon. The game should had you collect maybe some of AZ's journal entries and you had to put the pieces together in the end. That would of been cool. Well, I got off topic a bit there. Back on topic, AZ's machine was almost launched again at the end of the game. What if it was shot out again? How would that affect Kalos?

Next thing I want to address is the war. I hope that GF mentions this war in there next game and then give us some more backround about it. I am super curious about the whole war. Who won? Why were they fighting? How brutal did it get? This interests me the most.

More speculation coming soon! :3

The research material in Lysandre lab, the room where you find the rare candy says:

The war was started because of disparity between the have and have nots. AZ had made Kalos wealthy.
It says that the war became so brutal that AZ was forced to send his own pokemon into the fight.
It says that AZ younger brother, Lysandre's forefather, led a greedy group of people who wanted to seize Kalos (was the war a civil war?)
It also says the Lysandre's forefather buried the ultimate weapon and passed the info to his children before he died.

And we know from Masuda that:

- "The war was a clash between two different countries." (So that's a "no" on the civil war thing.)
- "People treated Pokémon with special powers as mere tools in their conflict. They gathered lots of Pokémon and Pokémon with unique powers. This long conflict was drawn out and many lives were lost. In order to emerge victorious, the soldiers believed that they needed even more powerful Pokémon."
- "AZ loved his Pokémon, which he had received from his late mother, but it was forcefully taken from him by the soldiers. His Pokémon ended up becoming just another sacrifice in the war."

Ah, right. In that case, I'd say either someone traveled with stories from Unova to Kalos, or more likely, it's simply an oversight from Game Freak themselves.

I think your first interpretation could be correct. Considering the impression they left (they did raze the region to the ground), they probably did leave a lot of stories or even murals behind them. It wouldn't be that hard for someone to bring them over to Kalos and they designed the statues from them.

One mystery you forgot to add were the mentions of unheard of places and regions (person who talks about a backwards waterfall, guy who says he is from an entirely new region and gives you a souvenir). tHere also mentions of the surrounding regions near Kalos.

The backwards waterfall is assumed by most people to be in the Distortion World.

However, the man says that the reverse waterfall is somewhere in *this* world, which the Distortion World is not a part of. The Distortion World is a separate world in a parallel universe.

Unless that tourist is secretly Cynthia again I don't see how anybody would be able to know about it.

Also backwards waterfalls are a natural phenomenon so not too Farfetch'd to appear in a game one day.

And the one in the Distortion World isn't a waterfall as it does not need the HM nor is it backwards as the water falls downward, and down is considered to be, well, going deeper in the Distortion World as is evident by Cynthia, Cyrus, and Giratina.

I agree. Those were technically not waterfalls, but i have to ask where do backwards waterfalls occur.
